As the winter begins to deliver increasingly inclement weather it might be a good idea to explore some of the more indepth tools available from the guys at Windfinder that feed weather data to the Through the Gaps home page.
Clicking on the super forecast link will bring up a forecast for the next three days - like this.
Local wind: Just above the data you'll see a link that says Google Map - clicking on this will bring up a maplet of Cornwall including the Isles of Scilly - and dotted all over the maplet are individual weather station data feeds giving the live windspeed - very useful for ascertaining just how fickle the local winds around the coast might be at a given moment.
Regional wind: Clicking on the forecast link gives a wind chart that covers the entire south west, including Wales and the Englsih Channel - the chart is colour coded and uses the standard wind symbol to indicate the wind speed in knots.
Welcome to Through the Gaps, the UK fishing industry's most comprehensive information and image resource. Newlyn is England's largest fish market and where over 50 species are regularly landed from handline, trawl, net, ring net and pot vessels including #MSC Certified #Hake, #Cornish Sardine, handlined bass, pollack and mackerel. Art work, graphics and digital fishing industry images available from stock or on commission.
